Built-in memory for storing different data (photo, video, applications, music, etc.) here 16 GB. Do not forget that the update of the software version will be available for your smartphone, and for this you need to download it first, and if the space is not enough, it will not be able to update. Therefore, we advise you before buying to think about how much internal memory you need.

If we scared you just in the context of the built-in memory, then do not worry, because Sony Xperia L1 supports memory cards microSD with the maximum volume 256 GB. And this means that you can store all photos and videos with music on the memory card.
